Tyson Fury Can Beat Oleksandr Usyk If He Follows Billy Joe Saunders’s Plan…

By Admin September 4, 2024

JAKARTA – Tyson Fury was able to beat Oleksandy Usyk three times a night as long as he used a simple game plan prepared by Billy Joe Saunders.

“I don’t think anyone out there can beat Usyk. Tyson Fury, he can beat Usyk three times a night with one simple game plan.”

“Very, very simple how to beat it. You have to use your body size. You have to use your physical advantages.”

“Every attribute you have must be used optimally against this man,” Saunders told talkSPORT.

In the first duel, Fury took the lead before Usyk appeared aggressive at the end of the match to win a historic victory and secure an undisputed heavyweight world title.

Saunders paid close attention to Fury vs Usyk’s first fight. He actually saw that the British boxer could bring Usyk down in the early rounds.

However, that moment was missed. Saunders considered that Fury should not waste the first five rounds in the second clashes later.

“The first five rounds were like a sparring session for him. Actually, I’ve seen him do a tougher sparring in the first five rounds than that fight.”

“When he fell unconscious on the floor and people didn’t think he would get up, it turned out he was rising. That’s when he would change his tactics.”

“You have to give him praise. I know there is a lot of speculation about the ninth round, but he didn’t fall, he was still standing and fighting.”

“I’m not looking for excuses for him, but I know what happened in the camp and what didn’t happen in the camp.”

“I know that in terms of sparring and other small things, there are things that are missing and need to be fixed this time,” said Saunders again.

Saunders is currently Fury’s training partner in preparation for Usyk. He also believes this time the boxer nicknamed the King ofTEN will win a landslide against the Ukrainian boxer.

“He asked me to go to the training camp with him. So, I’m happy to say that I’m going with him.”

“I’m sure Tyson Fury will win the next fight. I’m sure he will also win with KO,” said Saunders.

Tyson Fury has ambitions to avenge the only defeat he has ever suffered against Usyk.

The King ofTEN was defeated for the first time in May 2024 by Usyk. The Ukrainian boxer was then named the first undisputed heavyweight boxing champion with four belts.

Now, Fury is looking forward to his rematch on December 21, 2024 and has been given instructions by good friends and former Saunders champions.

Potential Tyson Fury/Anthony Joshua fight will court ‘huge’ offers…

By Admin September 3, 2024

Anticipation for the all-British clash is probably at an all-time low, but money is still there to be made

It’s just a few short years ago that a meeting between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua would have been the biggest heavyweight fight to ever take place.

JUST IN: Tyson Fury Has Watched Mike Tyson Train For Jake Paul And Now Delivers His Verdict On The Fight…

Arguably Britain’s two best ever fighters in the division going against each other at the peak of their powers.

Alas, as is always the case in professional boxing, the two parties couldn’t come to an agreement and fans were left wanting.

Both Fury and Joshua went their separate ways. Joshua took on Oleksandr Usyk and lost his heavyweight title whilst the Gypsy King fought Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora, much to the chagrin of boxing fans.

Then Fury embarked on a money-spinning bout with Francis Ngannou before losing his own heavyweight belts to Usyk in a unification matchup.

Many are awaiting a rematch with Usyk at this stage, however plans for a Fury/Joshua match are now also in the works.

Is it a fight coming too late?

Joshua, to his credit, has bounced back from two successive defeats to Usyk and has brought back some of his notorious knockout power, laying Francis Ngannou out in sensational fashion.

His next opponent is fellow British heavyweig

ht, Daniel Dubois, who perhaps came closest to defeating Usyk since he became the champion, dropping the Ukrainian with a perfect body shot, only for the referee to judge it to be a low-blow.

Yet, plans are in motion to have Fury meet Joshua in Saudi Arabia, and whilst boxing fans are being cheated out of a matchup between the two in their prime, there is still a lot of money on offer.

Saudi Arabia’s move into boxing has vastly increased the money on offer for fighters at the very top of the sport, and whilst it is true that the influence of this state-funded enterprise has brought more boxers to face their rivals at the right time, it also makes events seem bigger than they actually are.

Joshua and Fury would be one such instance. Nobody is really interested anymore, unless Joshua defeats Dubois comfortably and Fury can reclaim all the heavyweight belts in Riyadh in December when he takes on Usyk in a rematch.

Perhaps that will set the stage for a classic ‘Battle of Britain’ but even then, it seems like it will be a stretch.

Despite this, Turki Alalshikh of the General Entertainment Authority is adamant the fight will take place.

“I think Joshua will win [against Dubois] but you don’t know. I picked Deontay Wilder against Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang, and he lost. This is boxing, especially the heavyweights.

“But I want to see Fury versus Joshua and the world wants to see Fury versus Joshua.”

Fans Create $18 Million Dream Team to Dethrone Kings Canelo, Usyk, Crawford, Gervonta Davis, and More…

By Admin September 3, 2024

How much money would it take to dethrone the champions in every major division? DAZN Boxing gave their fans a sum of $18 million in a recent social media post to choose their team. So, who are these champions? Undisputed heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk, former super middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez, and former undisputed welterweight champion Terence Crawford. But wait, there’s more.

WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis, undisputed super bantamweight champion Naoya Inoue, and women’s WBC super bantamweight champion Yamileth Mercado were also part of the lineup. This was enough to get fans excited as they picked from the options with price tags to defeat each champion in their division.

JUST IN: Anthony Joshua Names The Heavyweight Who Beats Everyone Including Oleksandr Usyk: “I’d Pick Him”…

Who are the challengers?

In addition to the defending champions, DAZN Boxing gave their followers five challengers they could pick from each division with a diminishing price tag. The only catch was the total price tag of the six challengers they chose should not cross $18 million. For Usyk, the challengers were Tyson Fury ($5 million), Anthony Joshua ($4 million), Zhilei Zhang ($3 million), Martin Bakole ($2 million) and Moses Itauma ($1 million).

For Canelo, the list of challengers included Edgar Berlanga ($5 million), Osleys Iglesias ($4 million), Jamie Munguia ($3 million), Diago Pacheco ($2 million), and William Scull ($1 million). In a similar diminishing cost, for Terence Crawford, the challengers were Jaron Ennis, Vergil Ortiz Jr., Jermell Charlo, Sebastian Fundora, and Xander Zayas.

Gervonta Davis had Shakur Stevenson, Vasyl Lomachenko, William Zepeda, Abdullah Mason, and Mark Chamberlain. Meanwhile, Naoya Inoue had to face one of the following: Angelo Leo, Brandon Figueroa, Rafael Espinoza, Murodjon Akhmadaliev, and Bruce Carrington. And finally, Yamileth Mercado.

Her challengers were Erika Cruz Hernandez, Elleie Sctotney, Mea Motu, Phannarai Netisri, and Nazarena Romero. Seeing such a formidable list of challengers, fans quickly took their personalized list to the comments section to challenge the kings of the division.

Fan wonders if they should keep the money

There’s a reason each of those fighters is a champion—nobody can beat them. This led one user to come up with an alternative. The user wrote, “Can I keep the $18M instead? Half of them not losing.” However, Davis and Crawford are yet to face Stevenson and Ennis, so their crown isn’t exactly safe.

However, the next user was all in on the game, as he shared his list to beat the kings of the divisions. “Bakole, Pacheco, Ennis, Stevenson, Carrington,” the user wrote. This user seems to have forgotten about Mercado, and he is even left with $3 million.

The next user had some changes in his list. The user chose, “AJ, Pacheco, Boots, Loma, Shu Shu, Netisri.” Skipping Stevenson for Davis was interesting, but the lack of money may have influenced this user’s decision.

Another user presented his list to fight the kings. The user commented, “Bakole, Pacheco, Ennis, Shakur, Bruce.” Even this user seems to have forgotten about Mercado, with several million left.

Meanwhile, this user was left bamboozled with the list of challengers provided for Canelo Alvarez. “That Canelo column is pure foolishness…. Im not playing this game …. Yall ruined it,” the user wrote. This could be because of the absence of David Benavidez.

While the list of fighters people chose to defeat the champions of each division is interesting, making those fights in real life can prove a bit difficult. But the post from DAZN Boxing gave a clear idea of what fights people would like to see. Regardless, who would you choose to beat the kings?

Anthony Joshua Names The Heavyweight Who Beats Everyone Including Oleksandr Usyk: “I’d Pick Him”…

By Admin September 3, 2024

Anthony Joshua is preparing for one of the biggest fights of his career later this month.

Having risen to the very top of the heavyweight division in quick fashion early on in his career, Joshua has had a number of ups and downs since.

JUST IN: Oleksandr Usyk Finally Names Who Will Win Tyson Fury-Anthony Joshua Fight After Facing Both…

He became a world title holder in 2016 and made successful defences against the likes of Dominic Breazeale, Alexandr Povetkin and Carlos Takam, unified against Wladimir Klitschko and Joseph Parker, then came unstuck against Andy Ruiz Jr in 2019 out in New York.

He avenged that loss later the same year but again lost his WBA, WBO and IBF belts on points over 12 rounds when taking on Oleksandr Uysk. The rematch went the same way in 2022 and since then Joshua has been rebuilding with four solid wins over Jermaine Franklin, Otto Wallin, Robert Helenius and most recently a devastating knockout of Francis Ngannou back in March.

He now faces current IBF champion Daniel Dubois on September 21 for his chance to come a three-time world champion.

Ahead of that he has spoken to DAZN Boxing and played the winner stays on game.

It finds him picking Muhammad Ali over all of the proposed contemporary opponents including himself, Dubois, Fury, Usyk and legends like Mike Tyson, George Foreman, Joe Frazier, Wladimir Klitschko, Vitali Klitschko and Lennox Lewis.

After winning gold at the 1960 Rome Olympics, Ali turned pro and beat the likes of Sonny Liston, George Foreman, Joe Frazier and Earnie Shavers over his 61-fight campaign. The former undisputed heavyweight champion was known as ‘The Greatest’ and left his mark not just on boxing but on history and politics.

Prince Naseem Hamed reveals how Tyson Fury can beat Usyk…

By Admin August 30, 2024

Prince Naseem Hamed believes Tyson Fury is capable of avenging his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk and insists the two-time heavyweight world champion deserves more credit.

JUST IN: Oleksandr Usyk Finally Names Who Will Win Tyson Fury-Anthony Joshua Fight After Facing Both…

Fury will get the chance at revenge over Usyk when the pair meet again on December 21 in Saudi Arabia, seven months on from their first meeting which the Ukrainian won by split decision to claim the undisputed heavyweight championship.

Former world champion, Hamed has blasted critics of ‘The Gypsy King’ and feels his whole career is being overlooked after suffering what was a maiden professional defeat.

“Fury-Usyk, it’s gonna be a good fight,” the 50-year-old told IFLTV.

“I would love to see Tyson Fury step up to the plate in a way that he’s never ever done and bring all them belts back home.

“Nothing will make me happier than seeing that.

“I’ve always said why’s everybody just talking about his last fight?

“Why weren’t they talking about Tyson when he went and smashed up Wilder when nobody could do it.

“When Anthony Joshua wouldn’t fight him, why are we not talking about that?

SEE MORE: How much Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will earn from heavyweight fight…

“Why is everybody forgetting he demolished everybody in that division for all them years?

“Why are you only talking about Tyson Fury right now after this last fight?

“How can you take everything away what he’s done in the sport and base it on his last fight?”

Fury endured a disastrous and fight-altering ninth round and was given a standing eight count from the referee, after stumbling into the ropes, as a result of a barrage of punishing blows.

The 36-year-old will not have the opportunity to become undisputed champion on December 21, after Usyk relinquished the IBF crown, with Daniel Dubois elevated to full champion and defending that belt on September 21 against Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium.

Hamed feels ‘The Gypsy King’ can reverse the result on December 21 and repeat the moments of success he had, in the rematch.

“He could [win the rematch] cause look, I seen him hitting Usyk with some serious uppercuts and hurting him and can hurt him so I feel he can.

“We got a lot of love for the Furys.

“He’s named his son [Prince], he’s said, after me.

“That means the world to me.”

Oleksandr Usyk Finally Names Who Will Win Tyson Fury-Anthony Joshua Fight After Facing Both…

By Admin August 29, 2024

Oleksandr Usyk is one of the few men with a real insight into what it’s like to fight Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury.

JUST IN: “Carl Froch Punching Air rn”: Set to Break Tyson Fury’s Record, Anthony Joshua Receives Major Boost from HE Turki Alalshikh and Fans Are All for It…

He first came up against Joshua back in 2021 as a big underdog at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. It was a close 12-round fight that he ultimately won on points.

He repeated the feat in 2022 when the two met for a rematch out in Saudi Arabia, this time surviving heavy shots late on from AJ to once again take a decision on the scorecards. The Brit struggled to accept defeat in the ring afterwards but over the course of the next year or so got back to winning ways including with three stoppage victories.

They have led him to a fight with IBF ruler Daniel Dubois in September when he will attempt to become a world champion for the third time.

SEE MORE: Oleksandr Usyk vs. Tyson Fury 2 – Carl Froch makes huge retirement claim regarding heavyweight rematch…

It was back in May that Usyk put his three world titles on the line against Fury, the then WBC champion. Once again the fight went the full 12 rounds and was a close contest with the Ukrainian just edging it come the final bell. That victory made him the undisputed heavyweight king, the first time anyone had held that honour since Lennox Lewis more than two decades ago.

Now Usyk must rematch Fury in December. Should he lose and Joshua win, there has been much speculation that ‘The Gypsy King’ and AJ could finally come to blows in the ring next year.

Boxing King Media asked the Ukrainian who he thought would win that fight should it happen and he went with the man in form.

“I guess Anthony, ‘AJ’. I guess ‘AJ’.”

Otto Wallin is another man who has faced both Brits and he recently sided with Fury.

It might be the fight of the year, and it has everything to offer. Two British heavyweights dance around the ring to score a knockout and secure a golden ticket to fight for the undisputed title next. What’s better than actually putting on such a show before their home crowd, too? So, the Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois fight is the hype, and the fans are looking forward to some fireworks and some heavy blows, as they fight it out for the biggest prize of their careers. And it seems it might also surpass what Tyson Fury pulled off two years ago.

JUST IN: Francis Ngannou’s Emphatic Response to Fighting Anthony Joshua & Tyson Fury in MMA…

Joshua, 34, and Dubois, 26, will clash at Wembley Stadium on September 21 for the IBF heavyweight title and the massive Riyadh card has already swayed the fans. The developments are under process to accommodate as many fans as possible, as HE Turki Alalshikh has requested some additions to the iconic arena.

Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois set on course to shatter some records

TalkSports’ Michael Benson turned to his X handle and revealed the Joshua vs. Dubois fight could break the current attendance record at Wembley Stadium. Previously, Fury had gone up against Dillian Whyte in 2022 and attracted a crowd of 94,000, the largest ever for a combat event in the UK. He wrote, “Anthony Joshua vs Daniel Dubois could break the British boxing attendance record at Wembley Stadium on Sept 21st as His Excellency Turki Alalshikh has said they’ve now applied to extend the capacity with the aim of surpassing the 94,000 who attended Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte.”

Interestingly, HE Turki Alalshikh, in a recent post on X, admitted to pleading with authorities to extend the capacity of Wembley and also hoped to pull up the largest crowd in the stadium’s history. Whether that comes true or not will depend on how the fans perceive the fight, and it seems they are swayed by it.

Fans rally behind ‘AJ’

SEE MORE: Tyson Fury set for surprise career change ahead of Oleksandr Usyk rematch…

One fan called Joshua, the one-third face of boxing, and demanded respect for the British fighter. They declared, “Anthony Joshua is 1/3 face’s of boxing! Put some respect on his name.” While Canelo Alvarez lays claim to the current face of boxing, the other part half is clearly Gervonta Davis.

A user criticized ‘AJ’ for cherrypicking an opponent and believed the last worthy opponent he faced was Oleksandr Usyk. Predicting a knockout, they argued, “The last good opponent Joshua had was Usyk smh AJ stops Dubois in 7.” Interestingly, after suffering a defeat from the Ukrainian fighter for a second time in 2022, Joshua is on an exciting 4-0 run.

Froch and Joshua were Olympic teammates but have since lost their close bond. Joshua recently called Froch a “p****y” in an interview and Froch went on to leak their WhatsApp DMs as well. Someone referenced the recent beef between Carl Froch and Joshua, at 28-3. They announced, “Carl froch punching air rn.” The comment was also in reference to Carl Froch’s long-standing record of 80,000 spectators at Wembley which he held in 2014 in a fight against George Groves, which has since been broken multiple times by both Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury.

A comment denied accepting anything from HE Turki Alalshikh. The comment read, “We don’t believe nothing turki says about a sell out 😂😂.” The comment could be a jibe at Terence Crawford vs. Israil Madrimov, where the Saudi adviser claimed to be selling out the arena, but later some contested that promoters distributed free tickets to fill the arena.

Lastly, one fan threw shade on Joshua’s opponent and praised AJ for his popularity and for carrying on promotional duties. They insisted, “AJ be carrying these unmarketable boxers on his back 😂.” Joshua has sold over 1 million PPV buys in his fights with Andy Ruiz and Wladimir Klitschko. He also sold almost 700,000 PPVs when he fought Francis Ngannou earlier this year. It remains to be seen whether he can replicate similar success when he fights Dubois.

What do you make of this development regarding Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois? Do you believe the fight will shatter attendance records on September 21? Let us know in the comments below.

‘He wants to beat Usyk’: Barry Hearn says Anthony Joshua still wants third shot at Oleksandr Usyk….

By Admin August 20, 2024

Anthony Joshua twice came up short to Oleksandr Usyk, but the Matchroom founder says he still wants to avenge those losses.

JUST IN: How much Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will earn from heavyweight fight…

Matchroom founder Barry Hearn tells Sky Sports that his company has a responsibility to deliver a big British fight between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury — who is currently scheduled to rematch Oleksandr Usyk while Joshua is lined up to face Daniel Dubois. But while Fury is focused on Usyk, Hearn says Joshua also has an eye on the Ukrainian who beat him in back to back fights between 2021-2022.

“He wants to beat Usyk,” Hearn said. “Because the first fight he had with Usyk, frankly he came out second best. He went away, he regrouped, he learned, he studied and he still got beat in the second fight. That’s why he got so disappointed in the second fight.”

SEE MORE: Francis Ngannou to make long-awaited MMA comeback against 6ft 8in giant after boxing defeats to Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua…

Hearn would continue by characterizing Joshua as a special type of athlete who is motivated by much more than money, and it’s his competitive spirit that drives him to try to reach boxing’s mountaintop once again.

“These people want to win and they want a legacy. I don’t think Anthony Joshua will sleep at night until he is unified.”

Joshua, however, mustn’t get distracted from the task at hand as a loss to Dubois could likely ruin the prospects for him getting the fights he’s looking towards. Joshua and Dubios will go head-to-head on September 21 at Wembley Stadium while Fury and Usyk rematch in December, and should everything go according to Matchroom’s plans, there will be another big fight for Joshua to come thereafter.

How much Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk will earn from heavyweight fight…

By Admin August 18, 2024

The much-anticipated heavyweight showdown between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk is finally set to happen at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh this Saturday.

JUST IN: Tyson Fury set for surprise career change ahead of Oleksandr Usyk rematch…

The pair will be battling it out for all four major heavyweight titles, marking the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 2000 and the first champion of the four-belt era. Originally pencilled in for February, the fight was delayed due to an injury Fury picked up during training.

The postponement has only ramped up the tension, with a recent spat involving Fury’s dad John and a member of Usyk’s team adding more spice to the mix. On top of the championship belts, both undefeated fighters are set to pocket a hefty payday.

While the final figure won’t be confirmed until after the fight, it’s estimated to be around $150m (£116m), according to The Independent. Last year, it was agreed that the purse would be split 70/30 in Fury’s favour.

SEE MORE: Francis Ngannou to make long-awaited MMA comeback against 6ft 8in giant after boxing defeats to Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua…

Usyk accepted the smaller share on the condition that Fury donates £1m of his winnings to Ukraine, reports Birmingham Live. If the reported purse is accurate, Tyson Fury is set to bag a whopping $105m (£82.9m) from this weekend’s bout.

Last year, legendary boxing promoter Bob Arum revealed that the ‘Gypsy King’ would not be satisfied with a mere $100m offer. In an interview, Bob Arum revealed: “If you told Tyson Fury he’s set to make $100m, he’d really get p****d off,” elaborating further by saying, “Because he thinks and I think he’s right that he’s gonna make a lot more than that.”

Tyson Fury is no stranger to high earning fights in Saudi Arabia, having

previously pocketed a hefty £35m from his crossover bout with former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou last October.

Tyson Fury set for surprise career change ahead of Oleksandr Usyk rematch…

By Admin August 15, 2024

As Tyson Fury gears up to rematch Oleksandr Usyk, his first racehorse is preparing to make her debut this week.

The former heavyweight world champion’s two-year-old filly, Big Gypsy King, runs at Newmarket on Friday afternoon in the 5.45 race.

JUST IN: Oleksandr Usyk vs. Tyson Fury 2 – Carl Froch makes huge retirement claim regarding heavyweight rematch…

And Fury will be hoping she can score a knockout blow as he watches on from the stands.

The young maiden is trained by Darryll Holland, who has high hopes for the Gold Star Promotions horse.

“Big Gypsy King is a very nice filly and has a big build — just like her owner!” he told The Sun.

“Traditionally, horses have been a big part of Tyson’s family.

“It’s brilliant for the sport to have a global superstar like him involved.

“I was introduced to Tyson’s manager Spencer Brown, and things just went from there.

“I’m really pleased Tyson is now part of the team at Harraton Court Stables…

“Tyson hasn’t been down to the yard, but I’ve been sending his team video updates and I’ve said hello to him when he has been in the car with Spencer.

SEE MORE: David Price Predicts Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua: “I Always Thought It Would Be A Whitewash”…

“They are very busy people, but they wanted to come and see the horse run and, thankfully, it has worked out as Tyson will soon be getting ready for his rematch with Usyk in Saudi Arabia.

“Hopefully if Big Gypsy King does well Tyson might get a few more.”

Fury is set to rematch Usyk on December 21 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia for the WBC, WBO and WBA belts after dropping a split decision to the Ukrainian in May.

Their inaugural encounter was all four major sanctioning body belts, however, Usyk has vacated the IBF strap.

The IBF wanted Usyk to face Daniel Dubois but the 37-year-old wasn’t able to accept their call due to the rematch clause in his contract with Fury.

As a result, Dubois has been upgraded to IBF world champion and will defend his title against Anthony Joshua on September 21 at Wembley Stadium.

Whoever emerges victorious from that fight is the favourite to face the winner of Usyk vs Fury next.

However, if Fury loses again, some believe his boxing future will be in doubt.

“If he loses to Usyk, I think that will be the last we see of Tyson Fury,” Carl Froch said on his YouTube channel.

“He has had a bit of a time out to get over the defeat, and go for it and had a good training camp.

“At 36-years-old he struggles to do the weight, he is slowing down and the stats are suggesting he is way past his best.

“If he goes out and earns another £50million and then he gets beat again, he isn’t going to fight again.

“He’s been great for the sport, but if Usyk does the job, which I think he does, [then I think he will] turn it in.”
